In Hawaii, Dog sets off from Honolulu to Kona to help his son Leland with some of his fugitives. First, a stop at Leland's boxing gym to warm up for their day of hunting with a quick sparring session and some father-and-son time together.

Dog is hunting a man known as "The Godfather of Waikiki". The bond is small, Dog and Beth bailed him out as a courtesy, but now he is refusing to go to court. If Dog doesn't bring him in, it could cost him more than money.

Dog has a big problem. Patty Estabilio has jumped a $15,000 bail bond and disappeared into Hawaii's underworld. Kissing the kids good night, Dog and Beth, with Tim and Leland at their side, plunge into a drug-infused netherworld.

Back in Denver Dog discovers that recapturing the past can be more difficult then tracking down felons. On a day of more misses then hits in their fugitive hunting, Dog and Beth repeatedly collide with reminders of their early days.

Dog goes after a fugitive named Tracy who lives in a homeless shelter, but the shelter's staff is uncooperative, and the two sides get into an angry confrontation that forces Dog to temporarily back off.

Dog juggles his job and family responsibilities at the same time. He leads the search for Robert, a low-level drug dealer who makes money by selling hedge clippings as marijuana and broken Macadamia nuts as crack.
